    Inspirational ideas! All of them. But it’s the coffee crate organizers that stole my heart. I love that idea. Rustic and charming and I appreciate how reasonably priced these projects are, right in my Hobby Lobby Budget. Thanks =)

    That shower curtain art is so clever! And I love the barn door track within budget! Thanks for sharing this with us. I don’t go on pintrest so it’s fun seeing some of the pictures.

    Love the ghosts! I made a ghost last year, for outside, with an upside-down tomato cage, pulling down 2 of the spikes for arms, wrapping it with white garland lights, securing it with a heavy brick, then draping it with a white sheet, and hot-gluing black felt eyes!
